Smile flits across the face
a blossom petal in the spring
not that lasting
but appreciated and welcome
while it does.
It barely begins to grow
not really there to put on a show
for the camera
or acknowledgement of others.
a personal smile
intended for the person alone
lost in their memories
and travelling in their own world.
But to everyone else
they are just a stranger
smiling to themselves
and the smile fades
as quickly as the blossom
blows away in a breeze.
